  1. Notification System Gets Word Out FastThanks to Capabilities of Cloud Platform “RedFlag is frequently used to communicate urgent information. We must be dependable, scalable, and cloud-based to meet the critical needs of our clients. Windows Azure gives us the stability and room for the growth we need.” – Daniel Wagstaff, CEO, Pocketstop WINDOWS AZURE ISV: Pocketstop WEB SITES: www.pocketstop.com www.redflaghub.com LOCATION: Dallas, USA ORG SIZE: 10-15 employees INDUSTRY:Communications WINDOWS AZURE ISV PROFILE: Pocketstop’s flagship product is the RedFlag notification system on Windows Azure. It also has solutions for digital asset management; text message marketing; and loyalty, rewards, and offers. READ MORE: Windows Azure ISV mini-case studies As a multi-channel mass notification system, RedFlag simultaneously pushes out messages by voice, text, email, and social media. The hosting environment had to easily scale to accommodate drastically varying recipient counts and each client’s ability to send messages “on-demand” without notice. Reporting requirements demanded RedFlag update vendor or carrier delivery notifications immediately as messages were delivered. For data security, each client’s information had to be housed separately. SITUATION: Windows Azure’s Cloud Services, Service Bus, and Windows Azure SQL Database provided the needed functionality. Windows Azure Cloud Services handle incoming broadcast requests and delivery notifications from vendors or carriers. These requests and notifications are queued using the Service Bus. Messages dropped into the Service Bus are routed to downstream worker processes and update client-specific Windows Azure SQL Databases. SOLUTION: • Windows Azure Cloud Services allow instances to be added or removed as needed to handle potential volume increases and decreases. • Service Bus load balances messages across multiple worker processes per queue while guaranteeing delivery. • Windows Azure SQL Database scales new client databases without affecting current clients. • Windows Azure can be deployed in any configuration to meet the business continuity requirements of enterprise customers.
